Event Info

The poignant and heart-wrenching one-act Bound, by composer Huang Ruo and librettist Bao-Long Chu, tells the true story of Diane Tran—an 11th-grade honors student in Houston, Texas, who was arrested for repeated truancy while struggling to balance school, two jobs, and family responsibilities.

Starring internationally renowned soprano Karen Vuong (who sang the title role in Anchorage Opera’s 2025 Madama Butterfly), this gripping drama is timely and deeply resonant.
